    When people say Fire Stotts, they have to be careful what they wish for.

    The only thing that'd make it worse is if we hired Kidd.

    Other than that, get stotts out of here. He's done nothing memorable in his 9 years here as the coach. Just rode the coattails of Dames heroics.

    IMO, Stotts deserves to be fired because any coach on a non-tanking team with a bottom-3 defense two consecutive years regardless of personnel should be an automatic firing.

    The competency of the next hire is a separate topic that will then fall on whoever made that decision whether that is Olshey or someone new is brought in.

    Here are the coaches who have had one or more bottom-3 defense in the last few years:


    Terry Stotts (twice)

    Scott Brooks (twice)

    John Beilein

    Luke Walton (twice one with Kings one with Lakers)

    Ryan Saunders

    Ty Lue (6 games), Larry Drew Interim (Lue the year before as well)

    Igor Kokoskov

    Earl Watson (3 games), Jay Triano Interim (Watson the year before as well)

    Fred Hoiberg


    Now is Stotts an outlier that should be given a pass for a pathetic coaching job equivalent to these scrub coaches or is he possibly the problem?

    I don't get the Nate MacMillan suggestion.

    For the memes clearly. It sends a message to the fans. "You don't like the coach we have? Fine. We'll bring back the last guy just to spite you."

    Wouldn't surprise me one bit it will be someone with close Seattle ties, which Id prefer to avoid.
    IMO, this team needs new ownership for anything to really change for the long haul.
